Hakone Tours

-箱根-

  • The luxurious hot spring mountain town of Hakone is a steadfast pillar of Japan’s “Golden Route”. While many travelers to Japan visit, most never get to see the beauty of the nature, to learn the depth of the history, or hear the the stories that bring them to life.

    There are a few tours to choose from. You could book just a day trip, or book several tours back-to-back to make a longer itinerary. We are happy to customize your trip to fit your needs!

    Hakone and the surrounding mountains were Really Rural Japan’s main location/stomping ground before the coronavirus pandemic when we moved out more rural. With family still living in the area, it’s a part of us and a place we have a deep connection with.
